The lineup of all 75 films of the Oceanside International Film Festival (OIFF) – to be shown on the big screen this August including a prominent gay and lesbian screening block – is now complete. For its next installment put out annually since 2009, North County San Diego’s largest film festival recently announced the whole schedule of its official selections, which will be screened during the course of eight days Aug. 9 – 16. It has been posted along with trailers on its Web site at www.osidefilm.org.
The event will run in the same format and venues as last year, screenings and celebrations taking place at two oldest theaters in town, Star Theatre and Sunshine Brooks Theatre. This year’s highlights include a screening of Guest Feature Film Attack of the Killer Tomatoes with its creator present, Deconstructing a Film Score workshop by Emmy-winning film composer, and special appearances by celebrities.
Tickets are now on sale. As before, all proceeds from this annual festival will be used to provide Oceanside Cultural Arts Foundation scholarships to graduating high school seniors (not just from Oceanside but from throughout North County San Diego) pursuing artistic and performing arts degrees, and to organize more quality events in this city.
